WW1 weekender november 7th

yith ment to ask last week,
do you or would you consider makeing up sets of the 1914 leather ?

i think i,m ok atm personaly but there may be others that want it and i can send them your way

warren

I have considered it, but it takes rather a lot of time to make to be honest. Time I just don't have. Plus I doubt I could do it any cheaper than the current manufacturers.

If I ever do get the time then it could be a chance to make some money, but it wouldn't be cheap!

Another sticking point is that I don't have a source for the snake buckle on the belt.

think i,v got a supplyer for the pat08 so alls going well,
i,l take a few pics at the weekend if the digger turns up
